Genome–environment Associations (GEA) or Environmental Genome-Wide Association scans (EnvGWAS) have been poorly applied for studying the genomics of adaptive traits in bread wheat landraces (Triticum aestivum L.). We analyzed 990 landraces and...

Warming and drought are reducing global crop production with a potential to substantially worsen global malnutrition. As with the green revolution in the last century, plant genetics may offer concrete opportunities to increase yield and crop adaptab...

Understanding the capacity of forest tree species to adapt to climate change is of increasing importance for managing forest genetic resources. Through a genomics approach, we modelled spatial variation in climate adaptation within the Australian tem...

Wheat was one of the crops domesticated in the Fertile Crescent region approximately 10,000 years ago. Despite undergoing recent polyploidization, hull-to-free-thresh transition events, and domestication bottlenecks, wheat is now grown in over 130 co...

Local adaptation allows animal populations to persist in diverse and changing environments, yet its genomic underpinnings remain poorly characterized in livestock. Chinese indigenous pigs, renowned for their rich phenotypic and ecological diversity,...

Understanding the genomic and environmental basis of cold adaptation is key to understand how plants survive and adapt to different environmental conditions across their natural range. Univariate and multivariate genome-wide association (GWAS) and ge...

As an endemic Castanopsis species on Hainan Island, Castanopsis hainanensis Merr. is uniquely adapted to tropical climatic conditions and occupies a relatively narrow habitat range. Given its long generation times, limited dispersal capacity, and eco...
